Emma H Hi there, Hope you're still having good times. We'll have to take you out for loads of nice lunches to help ease your transition into normal life when you get back to the UK! Take care Emma xxxx

Jean Hill Hi Dudes Wow I can't believe you're nearly on your way home. How long has it been. It is only with the last photo shoot that we are convinced you are indeed in Thailand, Malaysia en route to Singapore. And that's only because it is black and moody here, has rained for yonks, a bit like that Ray Bradbury short story when the sun only shone 1 day a year (and somehow you missed it). You both look wonderful - loads of love - take care and prosper and just get safely back. Loads of love Mum Aitch The sums are getter bigger!!

mummy c Hy guys, looking forward to seeing you next Monday. I've made sure Jack and Jess will be here too! I think you are eating at Dad's first and then on to me at 8 ish. We've missed you so much but by looking at your photos and vids and reading your blogs I almost feel like I'm there. Jess has just arrived home from France this afternoon and she says 'hi' and is looking forward to seeing you too. Have a very safe journey home to rainy 'ol England!!! All my fondest love, Mum xxxxxx

mummy Hi guys, well life really is a beach.....atain ride, sharks, lizards, spiders and obviously lots of alcohol!! I got your message Holl, sorry I missed your call. We are soooooooooo looking forward to seeing you both next Monday and 8 pm is fine. Are you coming for your tea? Do you want to stay the night? Both are fine. I'll make sure I've got plenty of alcohol in as I don't want you to have withdrawl symtems!!!! We're off to Italy next week but I doubt it will be as exotic as you're adventure. Glad to say that John is now looking suitably bronzed now. Take care on your way home and don't lose your passports or anything else for that matter. Love and miss you millions. Oh, I've washed your clothes and everything is ready for your return! All my love, and Keith says Hi. Mummy C xxxxxxxx

Dad H Can't believe that you two somehow slid into the world of Apocalypse Now. 'Never get off the boat!'. And please, tells us that the creepy crawlies you're waving around aren't your next meal. You could certainly give those wimps on I'm a celebrity get me out of here a run for there money. Up hundreds of steps in your case. When you finally get to that hidden temple, let Indy do the dangerous stuff, you two stay behind and mind the coats. Loads of love Dad xxxxxxxxxx

Emma H Hello there, Sounds like you've been having a cool couple of weeks. I'm still loving the photos (well, maybe not the scary insect ones!) Can't believe how much trekking you've been doing lately. Way better than any gym membership! We're off to see REM this afternoon :-) Keith's looking forward to seeing their support bands most, tho (the Editors & the Guillemots - spelling?) Try to stay away from poisonous spiders & owls & take it easy. Lots of love from Emma xxx

claire h john - you're looking tanned!!!! or is it dirt??? x x

Jean Hill Hi there dudes I think there's a bit of sun bed abuse going on there. I love the jungle images and a glimpse of a temple in the sky. It's a holiday weekend and it's not raining, but there's no sign of a full moon or a bucket of booze, but I live in hope. Sam, my partner in crime in college has found a cheapo holiday to Pisa (a stone's throw from Florence) but it would be the 17th October - Friday to Monday - long weekend sort of a fandango. Let me know if it sounds possible. Emma is fine - have you followed my sensible advice and superglued your toes together (it's the only cure for sand between the toes) trust me I know these things. Hope it all goes swimmingly and loads of love 'til we see you again. Much love to you both Mum x drat those pesky maths puzzles. How often does 2 + 2 add up to five!

Emma Boxen Hello! missing you both, its poo being back I wanna go travelling again! weather here is shockingly bad, like winter! I know I may have moaned sometimes when I was there with you but looking back on it now I've realised it was the best experience, just a shame a few things went wrong, but hey! and thanks again for helping us do it, couldnt have done it without you! ps. bangkok was crazy, we went to the ping pong show you have to do it on your way back! anyway hope to hear from you soon, more pictures please! love Emma x x x
